White Koala Born In Australia


White Koala Born In Australia.
WALT: Reflect on an article that we have read.
In Queensland Australia zoo a white Koala has been born. She is not albino. Zoo keepers say that her white hair is due to recessive gene inherited from her mother who has given birth to another pale baby Koala. In science it is referred to the silvering gene which is when and animal is born with white or pale fur. At this stage the zoo keepers are looking for a name, social media has already given some suggestions like Snowflake, Pearl, Sugar, Lily, Snow and White and Baringa which means dawn or light in the aboriginal language. Koala's are slowly decreaseing due to bush fires, disease and dog attacks. She is one of the twelve baby Koala's born at the zoo this season. I think this article is great because I have never heard of a white Koala until now. What I found challenging was trying to summarise this into my own words, what I didn't find challenging was getting an image suitable for this article. If I had to chose a name for the Koala it would be Snowflake I don't know why I would chose it but I just think it suits the baby Koala.

Pero Cameron Named In Basketball Hall Of Fame
WALT: Reflect on an article that we have read.
Pero Cameron, the Tall Blacks and Kiwi hoops legend has become the first New Zealander to be inducted into international governing body Fiba’s Hall of Fame. The achievement was announced by Fiba who confirmed he would be inducted at a ceremony in Geneva in late September. Cameron is a nine-time New Zealand NBL winner as a player, two-time champion coach, two-time Olympian, and attended three world championships with the Tall Blacks. He was also a 2006 Commonwealth Games silver medallist and appeared in hundreds upon hundreds of games in the black singlet over an illustrious 17-year international career. He is arguably New Zealand’s finest ever player.

Black's Ferns Make It Into The FInals

Black's Ferns Make It Into The FInals
WALT: Reflect on an article that we have read.
The Black Ferns have beaten USA 45-12 to progress to the World Cup final. The Black Fern were too strong over the course of the match and deserved their victory. However, coach Glenn Moore  said while it was satisfying to reach the final they made too many errors around the breakdown and coughed up possession too often on their way to their 45-12 win. Winger Portia Woodman scored four tries in the match and is the tournament’s leading try scorer on 13. Woodman said there was a noticeable increase in intensity being a semi final and the Americans physicality never let up. Woodman will now be playing in her first world cup final on Sunday morning. The final will be played on  Saturday at the Kingspan Stadium in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

5kg Of Coins Removed From Turtle

5kg Of Cons Removed From Turtle

WALT: Reflect on an article that we have red

The article that I was reading was about this Turtle that swallowed 5kg worth of coins. The Green Sea Turtle has been living in a conservation center that is located in Sriracha, Chonburi which is east of Thai capital of Bangkok. The Green Sea Turtle has eaten 900 coins after they where thrown in her enclosure for good luck. The coins and other objects where removed from the Turtle named Omsin,which means piggy bank in Thai. The coins weigh 5kg and her self weighing at 59kg. So that means when the coins where inside of her she weighted 64kg altogether. The vets believe that the seven hour surgery was the worlds first such surgery.

I kinda feel sad for the turtle because she had to go threw a seven hour surgery because she swallowed some of the coins that people have thrown into where she lived.
